mrwindowpainter · 04-03-2008

i'm an artist living and working in Ireland(the land of zero airbrush suppliers), I have a mural company and i am interested in doing my murals with air brushes
i wanted the rg-3L for mainly doing backgrounds and other bits aswell and then the HP-BCS for detail more so .does this seem sensible or would you advise otherwise

Is there a item that would let me run both brushes from the one compressor and if so will the capacity of the compressor need to be greater ,This is the compressor i was thinking of getting (THE WHISPAIR 50/9 )

* 9 litre receiver
* 40 dB (A)
* Super silent for use virtually anywhere
* Complete range includes portable and static models
* Reliable, simple and robust construction
* Standard equipment
* Ease of use, simple automatic control
* Additional information can be found at:

Capacity - 50 lt/min / 1.76Cfm Pressure - 8Bar / 116psi Motor - 340W / 0.5Hp Voltage - 230V Tank (L) - 9 Dimensions WxDxH (mm) - 350x350x470 Weight - 21Kg

also is there some thing for the rg3 that would allow me to use the same paint bottles as the HP-BCS.

I'M really feeling my way around here and any advice would be great.

p.s what do you think of my choice of brushes.

Thanks ! a frustrated with irelands resources and envious of USA choices ,forum newbee.
